Bill Levitt tried to create inexpensive homes for American families, especially those individuals who were involved in World War II. Upon returning home from war, many men came back to start families with the wives they left behind. Since home construction was very limited during the Great Depression and World War II, there was a need for the development of a significant amount of homes.
These homes, developed by Levitt, helped spark the development of suburbs in the 1950's. These communities were aimed at luring young families into areas where the homes could accommodate their growing families.
The correct answers are: a, b and e.
a. Slaves powered the equipment used to move water to the top of The Hanging Gardens
b. Terraces were built so shade trees, exotic shrubs, and colorful flowers could be high up on the walls.
c. Is not correct because the Gardens were built to resemble the home town of Nabuchadnezzar’s wife, Amiyitis.
d. Metal plates were not used to reflect light to make up for the shortage of sunlight in the area, because lead plates were rather used to help preserve the brick that otherwise would have been rotten by water. There was enough sun light.
e. Fountains, pools and waterfalls were used to cool the gardens.
The Gardens of Babilon were amazing engineer constructions that King Nebuchadnezzar (605 BC) built for his homesick wife to resemble the gardens of her hometown. He used slaves to construct them. They consisted of terraces raised one above another resting upon hollow pillars filled with earth to allow trees of the largest size to flourish. The technology used to build the Gardens of Babilon included water irrigation system from Euphrates River which then had to be lifted far up so it could flow down through the terraces, watering each level of plants. This was a big engineering task because it had to include a chain pump with two large wheels, one above the other; on one chain buckets were hung and as the wheel was turned, the buckets dipped into the pool and picked up water. The chain then lifted them to the upper wheel, where the buckets were tipped.
